Neymar will join Barcelona on 2 conditions

Neymar's relationship with PSG is growing increasingly strained
Neymar's relationship with PSG is growing increasingly strained

Neymar Jr. flew back to Paris to hold talks with the Paris Saint-Germain representatives in a bid to clear the air and ramp up his departure to Barcelona. After sitting down for a short meeting with PSG director Leonardo, Neymar was seen training alone at the PSG's Camp des Loges facilities.

Neymar is certain that Barcelona will come calling although Paris Saint-Germain are apprehensive about the Catalans coughing up enough money to prise him away from the club. If Barcelona fail to sign him, Neymar could face serious repercussions now in the mould of what happened with Adrien Rabiot once he refused to extend his contract.

But if Barcelona offer the right amount, PSG will sell. However, Neymar also wants the €43 million that Barcelona were supposed to pay him as loyalty bonus as per the contract he signed in 2016. There has been a legal dispute over this issue.

If these 2 conditions are fulfilled, Barcelona can have their man. Otherwise, they can turn around and walk away.
